There was a recent leak that indicates the upcoming superhero team-based first-person shooter game, Marvel Rivals, is introducing five new characters to the game. Although information is limited and unofficial, the leaking additions provide an exciting glimpse of the expanding list of playable heroes and villains.
The subject of the leak is the potential new players joining the game, reported to be Forge, Amaranth, Hive, Armor, and White Fox. To old-school Marvel comic fans, the names will sound familiar, each with their own set of powers and connections to the larger Marvel universe.
Forge, a technopathic mutant with the power to intuitionally create and comprehend technology, would bring interesting strategic and support potential to team builds. Amaranth, a fairly new cosmic being, suggests a potentially game-changing and runaway addition to the team. Hive, a group parasitic mind, might bring a different and unnerving playstyle.
Armor, the psionic exoskeleton-wearing mutant, would suggest a tough and durable presence in combat. Lastly, White Fox, a magical Kumiho agent, could bring a blend of agility and perhaps some arcane abilities to the game.
It is to be remembered that this information is leaked and has not yet been officially released by NetEase Games, the maker of Marvel Rivals. So, these possibilities as characters should be kept with a pinch of salt. However, the fact that these names have come out has surely caused a stir and hype in the community for Marvel Rivals.
If these characters are indeed included in Marvel Rivals, they would be completing a already well-rounded lineup of iconic Marvel characters, further enhancing the strategic depth and diversity of play. The fans will most definitely be keeping their fingers crossed with any official announcement from NetEase Games regarding confirmation of these exciting rumors for Marvel Rivals.
